I panicked so much when I had a fever and cold in my 5th month! I almost took a Crocin Cold but my gynac said to only take plain paracetamol if absolutely needed. It is totally normal to get colds, just ask your doctor first.
Just like we have to monitor what we eat, we have to be super careful with medicines like Crocin Cold & Flu. Some cold syrups and tablets have ingredients that are not safe. Please consult your doctor for a safe prescription.
This is something I keep wondering about too! Is plain Crocin safe but the Cold & Flu version not safe? I guess it's always better to call the gynac's office and ask before swallowing any pill.
Oh god, cold makes you lose all taste, and when you can't even have spicy soup or your cravings, it's torture! But please don't take Crocin Cold and Flu without asking your gynac. Try some hot ginger-lemon tea instead, it's so comforting!
Honestly, taking anything for cold during pregnancy is a big no-no unless the doctor tells you to. I lived on warm water and steam when I was pregnant and sleep-deprived. Call your gynac, don't play doctor on yourself!
I am in my 2nd trimester and currently down with a bad cold. My gynac strictly told me not to take Crocin Cold & Flu because of the extra active ingredients in it. Has anyone else been told to just take plain paracetamol instead?
Hey! 🌸 It's always best to avoid over-the-counter cold medicines like Crocin Cold and Flu because they can have ingredients that aren't recommended. A plain paracetamol is usually safer if your doctor allows it, so do give them a quick call! 📞
